is there an API that allows the search and replace that is found in notepad for a standard text box?
I am asking because it seems like you can do a lot of standard things with the API like cut/copy/paste/undo ect.
also the API seems to be much faster then code written in VB.
What is the down side to using the API, and why don't they teach it more in school? The only thing we did with it was to play a wav file. Not that wav files are unimportant but it seems that the API is a huge asset to windows programming. sorry for rambling
thank you for your time and have a good day
